We present the results of the Joint Student Response Analysis and 8th Recognizing Tex-tual Entailment Challenge, aiming to bring to-gether researchers in educational NLP tech-nology and textual entailment. The task of giving feedback on student answers requires semantic inference and therefore is related to recognizing textual entailment. Thus, we of-fered to the community a 5-way student re-sponse labeling task, as well as 3-way and 2-way RTE-style tasks on educational data. In addition, a partial entailment task was piloted. We present and compare results from 9 partic-ipating teams, and discuss future directions. 1
